And, get this: Lord Jesus makes forgiveness SO AWESOME, it's almost (almost) worth being a sinner, just so you can repent and ask for forgiveness. If you don't know what I mean, you're in for a LIFE CHANGING (in a GOOD way) experience!
AND HERE'S the DEAL: every one of us is a sinner, EVERY DAY OF OUR LIVES! soooooo, go to LORD JESUS (the GREAT Physician) and tell Him you got sick with sin since the last time you repented. Be specific with Him. Tell Him the truth, EVERY DAY. Don't try to hide it (you can't anyway). AND, part of the point of all of that is for you and me to learn that WE CAN TRUST LORD JESUS! DO NOT BE AFRAID!! (Sound familiar?) We can have INCREDIBLE relationship WITH HIM! THAT's part of the point!
BE OPEN with Him! Lay it ALL on the line! Like you are talking to a trusted and LOVING Doctor who has all the time in the world to listen to you! HE WILL KEEP YOUR SECRETS and He will help you overcome - no REALLY! He will give you strength to NOT do the things that are hurting you and leading you to sin! He REALLY wants you to get well AND continue in relationship with HIM!
PUT THOSE CRUTCHES DOWN (the temptations and bad habits) and lean on HIM! He is VERY careful with you and He will slowly, gently help you WALK without all those crutches, TOTALLY! It'll be just you and HIM and those who truly love you! YOU can be a MIGHTY blessing to others! AND, He's not gonna take anything from you that He won't replace with something BETTER!
LOL! PROVE ME WRONG! You won't regret living with and LOVING our Lord, JESUS CHRIST! (What have you got to lose... and think about all you can gain!)
Forgiveness is not given because you repented and asked for forgiveness. Forgiveness comes from trusting alone in the gospel of grace, that he died on the cross, was buried and rose again. It's faith in his death and resurrection as atonement for our sins, not you on your knees begging for forgiveness. You asking for forgiveness is insulting to what he accomplished on the cross.
And stop with the healing garbage, you're so worried about your life here, it doesn't matter. Only God's will matters in the life. His grace is sufficient.
Most people are biblically retarded on this site.
My sins have been forgiven by trusting in his gospel of grace, not by your prayer.
You seem to be confused about God’s promises of blessings to Israel and His promises to the body of Christ. We have no promises of earthly blessings, Israel does. We’ve been given grace by faith, not by works. Our hope is in his sacrifice on the cross.
Humility would serve you well. Reading Romans might clear some things up.
